Guardian: Reports " This is the idea, being briefed by UK government sources on Monday, that Brussels is said to be seeking if it agrees to a UK-wide backstop. This would be a secondary guarantee, covering just Northern Ireland, if the first incarnation fails. "
Lets Get Real:
This blog never tends to praise the Guardian, but on this one subject it must be applauded, in article it explains the backstop of the backstop in a clear manner and the political problems with the issue. The UK Government under PM May needs the DUP to stay in power, thus it can not give way, and even then if there is an agreement the PM would need to get the hard remainers and hard brexit supporters on board, not an easy task. The Chief Whip will have to put his phone on and use the dark arts of the House of Cards ( UK version ) to make sure the MPs are whipped in to the right voting area. The prize of Brexit must not be LOST, hard Brexit supporters should give a little, the prize is the UK out of the EU.
